getResources, image TV and media sources: can't get the full image path to display

Hello,

this is my getResources call:

[[getResources?
	&parents=`21`
	&tpl=`articleRow`
	&limit=`6`
	&includeTVs=`1`
	&processTVs=`1`
	&depth=`0`
	&includeContent=`1`
	&showHidden=`1`
]]

and in the articleRow chunk:

[[+tv.thumbnail]]

The TV is set with a media source pointing to assets/img/articles, but I can't get to display the full path to the image. Only the image filename is displayed.

I read similar problems and they all where solved by adding &processTVs=`1`, but as you can see it doesn't work for me. Any idea?

An alternative would be to display the media source path, and then have

[[+mediaSourcePath]][[+tv.thumbnail]]

But it looks like a hack to me... getResources should process the TV according to the media source.

Any idea?

Is the path and URL of the Media Source actually

assets/img/articles

Because if it is, you need to put the / at the end of the path and URL. Also, make sure that the "basePathRelative" and "baseURLRelative" are set to "Yes".

Yes I wrote it wrong in here, it did have the / at the end and both were relative but... the baseUrl was emtpy (headbang). It works now thanks!
